Sitting in the stillness of the heart.  What does that actually mean?

Sitting with the wisdom of God, sitting with the flickering light of a candle where the divine speaks its truth.  Can one really hear the truth when there is no noise around you.  Sitting in the stillness of the heart is all that’s needed – there is a relief and a a profound sense of being ‘normal’ in stillness.

Om shanti om shanti om shanti. 

Lord Shiva to hold us in the world to protect.

The undying light to sustain us in time of wanting peril

To bring love in the treadmill of life of demanding human need.

The burning light of a candle in the mist of time.

Hope is not hope. Love and the divine is here to protect us from hope.

Supreme being of Lord Shiva – forever in your arms.

Wanton love and support in the internal world of life.

Just sit there right now. Don’t do a thing, just rest.

For your separation from God is the hardest work in the world.

Let me bring you trays of food and something that you like to drink.

You can use my soft words as a cushion for your head.

‘Love Poems From God’ Daniel Ladinsky

Heart Meditation

What a discovery – heart meditation shifts our naughty, creative trickstered mind into a place of love and true expectance. The head and heart become one – love, peace and joy reside.

It’s in the silence of the retreat where deep cleansing occurs. The residual past melts into new life of a living world.

The noise and ticker-tape destruction is constant. Smiling with the heart melts these beautiful complexes which give insight to creative growth and transformation.

What a relief ❤️

I have been thinking about my spiritual life as I move into the new year. There seems to be constant struggle to find meaning with God.  The need to merge with God is strong and very powerful.

However, I come up against the dark wall that is not penetrable.  Sitting in a dark searching and hoping for meaning is ever present.  Will peace and tranquility ever be part of my life or shall I live this angst forever,  Has God forsaken me. I think not but the ever present feeling something powerful is holding me – 

Dark Night of the Soul come to mind – am I worthy of God’s love – what am I searching and what is all for.  The dark wall is ever present.

With deep sadness Alessandra passed away Sunday 17th May 2020.

I will miss the journey I have been on with Alessandra – a funny, vivacious and a great mind to explore all possibilities.

Rest well and enjoy your next journey.

“One alchemical statement says that death is the conception of the Philosophers’ Stone.  The death of the ego, or the ego experiencing itself as dying, is very often the prelude to the birth of awareness of the self.  Jung makes the profound statement in Mysterium that “the experience of the self is always a defeat for the ego.” That’s because an encounter with the greater thing always has a wounding and damaging effect, initially, on the lesser thing.  And the experience of guilt belongs to this whole phenomenon of defeat and inadequacy and wounding.” Edinger (1994) P29/30

It is the time of year to think about how we have come out of hibernation and feel renewed due to our own internal rebirth. This is the time to explore your internal world to make new your commitments to life.
